You know what, I'm gonna say it. Experience fandom regression your way.
You found agere headcanons in a horror game? Wonderful!
You have an 18+ source you associate with sfw agere themes? Heck yeah.
Everyone and their mom says X is the little, Y is the caregiver, but you don't think so? Make blog posts about Y being a regressor, make a caregiver moodboard for X.
Don't like romantic themes in a ship everyone ships? Make it familial or platonic.
Niche fandom no one knows about or has absolutely no posts about when you look for agere content of it on Tumblr? Be a trailblazer! I'd love to see your post.
Pure self indulgence and OC shipping? Absolutely adore it.
You want to completely project yourself onto a character to make their regression/caregiving experience more like you? That's so cool.
Don't think you can write or draw that well but want to make fan work of your favorite characters? You'll do great, it's about fun, not perfection.
You have 10+ fictional CGs? A found family of characters you associate with regression? Tell me about them all. Show me the family you built.
The point is, fandom agere I feel like can be so gatekept sometimes. People feel like they need to follow rules to avoid being judged, but you don't. Regressing is all about having fun, and making new memories and experiences. I think it's great you have a fandom/character you love enough to go on that journey with. Some of us may not be so good at playing with toys or doing a lot of commonly talked about agere activities, like me. But my characters I love? My art, my writing? Absorbing myself into a fictional safe space I've built is how I play. How I express myself, and I want you to know you can do that in any way you want.
I spent far too long thinking things were wrong or right, that they were taboo or bad in this community when really, I was just disagreeing with the masses about an opinion in fiction. Everyone has different opinions, comfort levels, boundaries on their own works, etc, but as long as you aren't breaking those bounds and are keeping things SFW? Have a blast. This is your coping mechanism, your fandoms, your interests, your things that make you happy. Have the most fun, okay little one?
This is how I see them, they should have a playdate🩵 Water babies!
they are going to EAT him alive
there’s something so pure about falling asleep regressed; tucked in soft blankets, stuffie(s) in hand, feeling so tiny and cradled by pure comfort.. almost feels like nothing can hurt you when you’re like that, safe and sound and small ♡
“I’m not a pet regressor” I say as I meow and sit in a rocking chair in a patch of sun from the window to watch the birdies and cuddle my blankie
(I put this set under a 'read more' because while I do skirt around their relationship in my Erik agere content, it's harder to avoid the fact that Erik was very much an adult when they met when I'm writing about Chrstine's regression, so because of mentions of that, I'm putting a content warning here for the age gap: although my headcanons are set in a time when they're both adults, that isn't intended to fix the previous imbalance)
The two of them have come to revel in the oddness of their relationship: they have been enemies and lovers and predator and prey, and now that Christine has gained her own claws, they come together on shifting ground
Erik has always known about Christine’s regression: she was often young when she wept for her father in the empty rooms of the opera house, where her angel’s voice would soothe her to sleep
Many nights, he would carry her back to bed once she had succumbed to slumber, and tuck her in as he imagined a father might
Those nights made him feel desperately protective and desirous of the same gentle treatment, which he himself had never received
Christine did not take long to find out about Erik’s regression in return, and once she told him that she wanted to help, he always immediately ran to her to cling when he was regressed
This is one single edge of their complicated relationship, but it is a very meaningful and gentle part that they both prize dearly
Erik calls her ‘mama’ and Christine melts for it every time
Christine still calls him ‘angel’ when she’s small: a bittersweet thing for the two of them, but innocently meant in her regression
They don’t get along when they’re both regressing, and tend to give each other space and time: they both need a gentle hand that the other can’t quite give when they’re both small
Erik has a much more dissociative experience with regression, with memory loss and confusion upon regressing and aging up again
Christine tends to have more memories shared, and less disorientation, but she’s also more prone to regressing in stressful situations, whereas Erik regresses when he feels safe (or is waking from a nightmare)
Both of them are very clingy to their caregiver when they’re regressed and the other is around, but they can also spend a day alone when regressed and have a good time doing that as well, especially Christine, who likes to dig in the garden
they both enjoy sharing music through regression: Erik is a magnificent musician at any age, and Christine likes to sing simpler songs when she's regressed, which Erik never fails to praise her for
Christine likes to read books but Erik prefers to be moving or creating, too restless unless it's time for a nap, but he'll make an exception if Christine will cuddle him while she reads out loud

Such a good dada.. he has the most warmest and best cuddles
He doesn't really have his..what other's would call, "wolf" features but he does have the fangs that he teasingly bears at you if you ask!
Tickle monster... He's the biggest tickler ever >:3
Super protective..he holds you closely while out in public so you don't get hurt or anything!
His hair is naturally fluffy so he lets you nuzzle it and brush it.. he always shakes his head and smiles whenever you call it "fur"
He's like a huge old lap dog.. he loves playing with his little baby and taking naps every now and then, even going to a park together ^.^
Calls you nicknames like: "pup" "scout" "lil one"
He often takes you to work with him, even though he knows it's not really the ideal place a little one should be but he doesn't really have anyone to watch you most of the time
Sory if it short TwT...
